Plates slide past each other at transform boundaries. These boundaries occur when two plates slide horizontally in opposite directions parallel to each other. The movement can be either in the same direction but at different speeds, or in opposite directions.
Continental Crust
When any fault occurs or tectonic plates pull away from each other under the ground. An earthquake happens.
Transform fault boundaries happen at the site where two tectonic plates move past each other in opposite directions. The two plates will grind past each other, breaking off pieces of crust from the plates. The plates can get caught on each other and pressure will build up until a break develops and the plates will lurch forward.
Transform plates are also known as "Spreading Plates." Therefore, they spread apart
Transform plate boundaries involve plates sliding past each other in opposite directions. This type of plate boundary is associated with strike-slip faults, such as the San Andreas Fault in California.

A place where two plates slip past each other moving in opposite directions is known as a transform plate boundary.
Transform fault boundaries happen at the site where two tectonic plates move past each other in opposite directions. The two plates will grind past each other, breaking off pieces of crust from the plates. The plates can get caught on each other and pressure will build up until a break develops and the plates will lurch forward.
Normally when two plates pass each other they create earthquakes and faults. When two plates pass each other the type of boundary the have is called a Transform Boundary.
